You should have demonstrable writing skills as well as strong Photoshop knowledge and an almost obsessive attention to detail.

A good knowledge of web standards such as HTML will be a bonus.

You will be constantly challenged in your work and will be expected to suggest and innovate, including taking part in the expansion of our editorial content to include peripheral reviews, expanded news coverage and other features.
